"Yanzhou, Zhongzhou, Dongzhou, and now, tell us what grudges we have!"
"Of course, I can't blame others for not being as good as others. I am convinced that I lost, but what about now? Didn't you also fall into my scheme?"
Hearing this, Nan Yanxi immediately pretended not to understand and asked with a smile: "Then I dare to ask Senior Xiang, what did I fall into your scheme?"
"Hmph! You little thief is like a ghost, are you trying to delay time?" Xiang Tianxing sneered: "I'm not afraid to tell you, with my martial arts skills and our current distance, even the King of Heaven, I, can't save you.
"
"Yes, Senior Xiang, I know that!" Nan Yanxi blinked her innocent eyes: "That's why I want to ask, what kind of trick did I fall into?"
"Just do your best and treat it as fulfilling my dying wish, how about that?"
"Okay! Then I will make it happen for you!" Xiang Tianxing couldn't hide the proud look in his eyes and said loudly: "I know that your Ming Dynasty has a strong military and has two million armors."
"For this attack, I have sent 600,000 troops. I have enough troops and food! If I were stupid and just defended, I would definitely not be your opponent."
"Fortunately, there is no unstoppable road. Although your Ming army has two million soldiers, it will definitely need a large number of guard troops because the country is too large and it is newly occupied."
"So your mobile force is estimated to be six to seven hundred thousand. After all, a battle only requires more logistics personnel than combatants."
Xiang Tianxing sat on the horse and stroked his beard proudly: "So I mobilized the elite troops to form an expeditionary army."
"Look at bypassing Liangzhou and directly raiding your Zhongzhou, huh... I expected that your Zhongzhou's defense will definitely not be very tight."
"How about...how does it feel to be attacked by a surprise attack on your hometown? Isn't it uncomfortable?"
"Oh? Really...why haven't I heard about it?" After hearing what he said, Nan Yanxi suddenly put on a surprised expression.
He turned around and looked at the soldiers on both sides, wondering: "When did it happen? Why didn't anyone tell me?"
"Ah! You little thief! Stop pretending!" Seeing this, Xiang Tianxing was furious and pointed: "Stop stalling here, you will die today!"
"If you hadn't been attacked in Zhongzhou, why would you have suddenly retreated? And you retreated in such a panic!"
As soon as he said this, Nan Yanxi burst out laughing until her stomach hurt.
Pointing at Xiang Tianxing, he said breathlessly: "I...should I say you are stupid, or should I say you are stupid?"
"I retreated like this, giving up the great country that I worked so hard to build, and killed so many soldiers at the same time, all for one thing."
"That's just for you old man!"
After saying this sentence, Nan Yanxi's expression suddenly changed, and she yelled at Xiang Tianxing: "Old thief! Do you really think I will be afraid of your expeditionary army?"
"Although our Ming Dynasty is new, we always consider the people and never exploit them. Various new policies that benefit the people emerge in an endless stream. The people live and work in peace and contentment, so there is no need for an army to suppress them!"
"What about the mobile force? If I hadn't taken a liking to you, otherwise I could have paid for 1.6 million, not to mention 600,000!"
"Do you really think it's because of me that I withdrew the troops? You're overthinking it! I did it for you!"
After the words fell, Xiang Tianxing immediately stayed on the spot and said in disbelief: "You...how could you...impossible...this..."
"What the hell!" Nan Yanxi waved her hand impatiently and interrupted him: "Let me ask you, what you just said are guard troops and mobile troops. Who did you listen to?"
Then he pointed to himself: "Did he say that?"
Xiang Tianxing was startled and looked subconsciously, only to see one of the two soldiers beside Nan Yanxi riding his horse and taking a few steps forward.
He reached out and took off the helmet on his head and the human skin mask on his face: "My lord... you are fine!"
Hearing this familiar voice, Xiang Tianxing looked up and saw that the person in front of him was the military advisor who had put himself in danger many times.
Some looked at him in disbelief: "Military...strategist? Why...why?"
Nan Yanxi behind him laughed: "Why? Because he is originally from my Ming Dynasty."
After saying that, he smiled at the military advisor and said, "Yes... foster father."
"Father?" Xiang Tianxing's head pounded when he heard Nan Yanxi call him, and he felt like the world was spinning.
He looked at the man in disbelief: "Adopted father? You are actually the adopted father of Emperor Nan Yanxi of the Ming Dynasty?"
The man dropped the human skin mask in his hand to the ground, and Langxess said: "Let's get acquainted again... My name is Huo Tianying."
"This time, in response to my son Yan Xi's request, I sneaked into your Xiang family to serve as a military advisor... Otherwise, do you think you are worthy of my loyalty?"
As soon as these words came out, Xiang Tianxing finally sat back on his horse feebly, and did not respond for a long time.
The previous scenes appeared before his eyes, which instantly made him feel ridiculous.
Things like turning things around, turning defeat into victory, taking things by surprise, and clever strategies are all things people deliberately do for themselves.
Looking back on how proud I was just now, now it seems as ridiculous as a monkey.
After being silent for a long time, Xiang Tianxing, who was still a little unwilling, raised his head again. At this moment, he seemed to be more than ten years older.
He opened his mouth and asked in a hoarse voice: "In that case, I have nothing to say."
"It's just that I don't understand something... I hope you two can answer my questions."
Huo Tianying looked back at Nan Yanxi and smiled indifferently: "Okay... just ask."
"Thank you!" Xiang Tianxing nodded and said slowly: "Since you are from Nan Yanxi, why did you advise me and propose a plan to join forces with Situ Wen and Dayan to fight against the Ming Dynasty?" "And why did you do it for me when you were in Linchuan?
I have made some plans to divert to Qingzhou."
"Wouldn't it be better to be surrounded and suppressed by your two armies under Linchuan City?"
"Also...since you have gone to Qingzhou, there is no reason why you came to rescue us. Wouldn't it be more worry-free and energy-saving to be killed by your pursuers?"
Hearing this, Huo Tianying nodded: "Since you asked, I will explain it to you one by one!"
"The purpose of proposing a plan to unite against the Ming Dynasty is actually to gain your trust. Anyway, my son has already calculated that Dayan will cause chaos soon."
"I just sent my subordinates to work carefully and fan the flames in Yanjing for a few days, and then Lin Xiaofeng and Lin Shenqing really started fighting."
"If Dayan is in chaos, of course this plan will not work..."
"In Linchuan City, although my son Yanxi's plan is to block you under the city and wait for the pursuers to come and surround you."
"But I'm not worried. The Linchuan city wall is low, and he only has 50,000 or 60,000 remnant soldiers in his hands. If you inspire the spirit of a trapped beast to attack with all your strength, if something happens, the gain will outweigh the loss."
"So I secretly sent someone to contact my son and offered a plan to trick you into going to Qingzhou and tell you all the benefits."
